You are the Patrick Starfish of this website. Congrats on EWU's impressive win over a three loss OVC team.

Towson might win, but I highly doubt they hold EWU to 28 points.
Stop sandbagging. Towson has to hop a flight all the way across the country, play in your frigid climate, and on that firebush of a field. You guys are the big, bad favorites. I'm not sure Towson stands a chance. :D
EWU did not play well at all today, so I could see why people that have only watched us once or twice this season could see Towson being the favorite...especially with their impressive win over EIU. No issues with that...I just think it's unlikely we'll play that poorly twice in a row. Like I said earlier, this season for some reason we usually follow up a marginal performance with a dominating one. I think it will be a great semi-final.

Usually. We followed up a very mediocre performance at Toledo with an even worse performance at Sam Houston State earlier in the year. I thought those marginal efforts were behind the Eagles, but then we go out and try to piss one away today.

I hope this goes like it did in 2010 when we played so awful against North Dakota State and still escaped with a win despite 5 turnovers, a couple of TD passes dropped, and giving up special teams TDs. The next week we laid down a monster game against a Villanova team that looked like they were a shoe-in to win the title.

And again, styles make matchups. For whatever reason, the Eagle D seems to have flipped from one that can't stop the run to a D that is pretty good against the run but can't contain anything through the air. Towson might be a decent matchup. Unfortunately, I'm coming to learn not to expect much from Eastern's defense for at least the first half of every game.

You are retarded in the Montana talk. Montana shouldn't have been seeded in the first place. They were overrated for half, or more, of the season.

Bison defense played terrible that day. Bison still have to worry about UNH before even thinking Frisco though. Good luck with Pete next week.

CAA still has not been beaten in this tourney. Maine only team eliminated and that was by UNH.
EC is better. Proven on the field and with NC's

Your welcome.

(reminiscent off 2010 CAA hubris...probably would have been the same in 2011 and 2012 except...)

2 good conferences with teams west of the Mississippi and 1 good conference with teams east of the Mississippi. :lol:

Just think if the Big Sky had accepted NDSU's application a few years back.

Not since 2009. Sure, a CAA team could win it this year but the last 3 have been by teams west of the Miss.
